Which famous photographer did Georgia O'Keeffe marry in 1924?

Georgia O'Keeffe married the photographer Alfred Stieglitz in 1924. Stieglitz was already a major figure in American photography and modern art when he began exhibiting O'Keeffe's drawings at his New York gallery, 291, in 1916.

Their relationship was both personal and artistic. Stieglitz photographed O'Keeffe extensively, producing hundreds of portraits and nudes, while O'Keeffe became one of the central artists shown at his galleries. The marriage connected her to New York's avant-garde art world, although she increasingly sought independence from Stieglitz's public interpretation of her work.

Stieglitz was 23 years older than O'Keeffe. They remained married until his death in 1946, but spent substantial periods apart, particularly after O'Keeffe established a strong personal and artistic connection with New Mexico. Their collaboration remains important, though O'Keeffe rejected many attempts to reduce her paintings to biography or symbolism.
